Coruisk House

Skye


This lovely old house enjoys stunning views from the top of the village. It has been lovingly restored and beautifully decorated, and offers two equally romantic bedrooms, one with four-poster bed. There's also a highly regarded restaurant (three-course dinner from £45) serving local seafood, lamb, pork and venison (all meals must be booked in advance).
